Pico Agudo

Pico Agudo is a mountain near Japira in southern Paraná state that rises to 960 meters above sea level and forms a prominent landmark in the landscape. The peak stands about 8 kilometers north of the town of Ibaiti and connects to regional transportation routes.

The peak was first documented in modern geographical surveys that used precise measurement techniques to establish its exact location. Systematic mapping of such landmarks has helped define the geography of southern Paraná over time.

Local sports enthusiasts and visitors gather at the peak between October and November for hang gliding and paragliding competitions that draw athletes from the region. These annual events shape the place as a meeting point for people who practice these aerial sports.

The mountain sits in a region well connected by road networks, especially via the BR-153 Transbrasiliana Highway that provides access routes. Visitors should prepare for mountainous conditions and variable weather depending on the season.

The summit serves as an observation point for studying the diverse plant and animal life found across southern Paraná. Its elevation and location make it valuable for ecological observation and nature research by visitors and local researchers.
